Picked this one the other day and hoping it'll go 65. Either BN or RB would be fine but looking for a higher grade. As PCGS is glacial these days, I'll probably know sometime in the spring how it scores, but trying to put together some things for the next submission and this one is in the ballpark.

This die is honestly really quite common, and has a number of die stages. This coin is stage-A, which I think is the least common, but can't really be sure. It is defined by the lack of die chips in LIBERTY, but it may just be that it isn't found as often as a lot of folks just look for those die chips when hunting for these and miss the stage A examples.

I was going to mention the die stage on that one. It is pre-die chips. Very nice. Haven't check yet, but some sites might like to have images of a fresher die state.

Thanks for all the kind words! Unsure if any of the sties are missing this die stage, but for some time I haven't been submitting things. VV went awol but I think they are accepting things again through some process, and the other attributors either weren't taking coins or other various issues. Now cuds-on-coins is on a hiatus. I expect all this will eventually get sorted out, but until then I'm just waiting things out before starting to submit again.
